Cold weather birding A few documentation images from a couple of local birding trips. Vesper sparrow - Pooecetes gramineus Several are at this location most winters. This one did not pose long. Looking at Sibley's guide, TIL that the rufous on the shoulder is not usually visible on the fresh (winter) adult.

Yates Mill duck Ruddy duck - Oxyura jamaicensis (female) Swam right by me as I was walking around the lake to get a look at the Red-footed Booby.

Snake pile! Common Watersnake (Northern Watersnake) - Nerodia sipedon ssp. sipedon A group of these was basking at the base of the historic Yates Mill building, right next to a trail. Another photographer showed them to me--I would have walked right by them otherwise.

Preening sequence Just three more images of this "slightly out of season" Red-footed Booby (Sula sula) on an inland lake in Wake County, North Carolina (USA). The bird was resting most of the time it was observed. Occasionally it would do a thorough preening, including this one before taking flight--just after this sequence was taken. It flew off quite strongly, from what I could see through the trees. Efforts to find it on area lakes have failed. I hope it made it back to the coast. I'm pretty sure I will never see a booby again while listening to the song of Carolina Wrens and Cardinals.
